Hit me with your best shot
We had some really great entries in the landscape theme. This week, I just want to see some of your favorite shots. The photographs you take can have so much meaning to you, so make sure to include why these shots are your favorite.
The shot that I am using for the contest thumbnail is a shot of my daughter during her first equine therapy appointment. A few years ago, we almost lost our daughter due to depression, and her equine therapy appointments were one of the first steps that she was taking to get herself back into a better headspace. So this shot captured her long road to healing, which brought our happy daughter back to us.
So make sure to include some information about your photos. That way we can all see why they are so important to you.
How is the Deranged Photography Contest set up?
Every Sunday, I will announce a new theme for the week and you will have until Saturday to get your submission in. There will be two tiers for the contest. A professional tier and an amateur tier. When making your submission, you must state which tier you will be competing in. I usually get a lot of entries, so make sure to follow all the rules or else your submission won't count and will likely be ignored.
I will not allow any entry that is not your own original photography. If you are caught plagiarizing someone else's work, you will be flagged and banned from participating in any future contest. So make sure that the photos you are submitting are ones that you personally take.
All entries must be done through the Liketu front end. One of the goals of the contest is to create more awareness of Liketu, so make sure that you create your post from https://liketu.com/.
You only get one entry per week, so make sure to spend some time on getting a good photo and creating a fun post about your entry. You will need to submit a link to your post in the comment section of the contest announcement post and you will need to include at least one image from your post in the comment you make. You are encouraged to share more than one image in your post. The more effort you put into your post, the more chance you have for curation and possibly winning your tier.
On top of a chance for curation from Liketu, the top three entries in each tier will be awarded as follows:
| Place | Professional | Amateur |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | 8 Hive | 4 Hive |
| 2nd | 5 Hive | 3 Hive |
| 3rd | 3 Hive | 2 Hive |
Rules overview
- Your entry must be made on Liketu.
- No plagiarism. If you are caught plagiarizing, you will be flagged and banned from future contest.
- You must state the tier you are competing in, Professional or Amateur.
- You must comment on the weekly contest announcement post with a link to your entry and at least one photo from your post.
The rules are pretty easy, so make sure to follow them or your entry will be ignored.

I love everything about this. Great job

Difficult theme! This time I picked some photos that aren't master pieces, but represent exactly when I really got hooked to photography -- that one moment when we begin to see things differently.

I had a hard time choosing one also
Here's the Liketu link, but since there went something wrong with the text, I recommend reading it on Peakd since Liketu wouldn't let me edit it.

Damn, those parallel lines on @hetty-rowan's photo are so cool. Great job everyone! And thanks for the podium. This week's theme is going to be tricky.
Thanks! Compliment is very much appreciated.
What a contest!
Too bad I missed it.
Shot some pretty epic landscapes today on vacation!
Congrats to all the winners and kudos to Deranged for hosting yet another fun contest.
That area looks awesome.
Thanks for the 3rd place, and congrats to all the other winners. They had awesome entries!
And a very nice theme for this week. I´m going to get mine in as soon as I know which one it must be. Can´t wait to see all the ¨best shots¨!
I bet yours will be pretty epic.
Lol, thanks! I'll try. Like everyone else. It's going to be fun.
Definitely getting in on this one! Good luck everyone!! :)
Nice. Can't wait to see what you got for it.
Probably nothing compared to what everyone else brings to the table, like the winners from this week, but I'm excited to participate! :)
That's why the story along with the photo is so important. I will be taking that into account as well.
Glad you have again a happy daughter!
It's a beautiful thing to lead, it's even more beautiful to lead by example.
I'm happy for your daughter and your family.
I reckon there would be some fun entries in this one. Not necessarily the shots, but the story behind it.
I will have to reblog this to come back and read them later 😌
very good Dear friend, I did not understand the theme of this week's contest
🤔🤔🤔
First of all thank you so much for the 3rd place. You picked some absolutely stunning winner shots. Now I will go through my photos to find my favourite for the next round.
Thank you Wes for the prize! Amazing entries there!
The shot of your daughter has such a touching story with it... Glad to hear you are all well now.
I haven't figured out what this week's theme is yet.
Wow, beautiful shots! It makes me want to go out and explore more of the world like ASAP!
I came here via Listnerds. What a great selection of authors!
Happy to hear that your daughter is well again.
Congratulations to the winners - great photos.I hope to enter the contest very soon.

This is my participation
Your post is not a valid entry. You did not make your post from Liketu.com. Please be sure to read the rules and follow them so that your entry will count.
Sorry I read it, but as I am practically new to this platform, I tend to get confused, with some endings, Well no way, thanks for correcting me, maybe or maybe there will be another opportunity. We have to try. What I regret is the amount of lost photos. My pleasure.
Incidentally, where I live I don't have a good internet connection, but it's fine anyway. Another time. friend @derangedvisions, success.
Hi everyone Here is my Entry for the new week. Tier: Amateur
https://peakd.com/hive-147010/@wendyth16/deranged-photography-contest
Hi @derangedvisions
Here is my contribution to the contest, pro tier.
Link to the original entry 'Portrait of a construction worker'
This post doesnt explain anything about what makes this image one of your best
To put it succinctly: too complex.
I had the idea that it was a photo contest, but I was wrong.
I'm just a photographer who wants to see his work evaluated, and if I also get some symbolic benefit, all the better. I am not a writer, let alone a poet. I've never been good at literary expression, and I don't understand very well when you have to make exhaustive explanations of the images.
In any case, and very sincerely, I thank you for replying to me and above all, for taking the time to create a photographic space.
My best wishes
Xavi
